I feel like service workers are pissed off even after I tap 20%. They are all pretty angry and probably a little humiliated if they’re not teenagers. Can’t really blame them. Service industry is a crummy dead-end job.

If you're not tipping generously, don't expect generous service. Enjoy the food you pay for, and don't expect the smile you didn't pay for.

OMG I really doubt most people care if you give them change or not, it’s all money. Half of all people don’t tip at all.

Entitled workers are annoyed at getting free money. I don’t consider that a tip, its just a convenience factor so they don’t have to count out the change.

If you want to dump the change, do a proper tip of real dollar bills and the change is in addition to it.


Oh my God. You’re ridiculous.

I swear the tone of the bakery gal helping me turned sour when I dumped the 80 cents or whatever it was into her tip jar.

I rarely have cash on me, but when I do, and when the tally is right near the bill I'm using, it feels awkward to tip the coins. In an era of 15%, 20%, and 25% digital tip screens, is a handful of coins seen as a slap in the face to service workers?


Who is silly enough to tip at a bakery or coffee shop?

Not this morning, because I was inside the bakery. I just turned my hand and dumped the coins into her tip jar. At the Starbucks drive-thru, yes, I'll say keep the change so they can put it in their tip thing (which I can't reach from my car).

Places I shop say thank you no matter how much is put in the tip jar. Sometimes it’s 25 cents sometimes it’s 5 bucks. I’d make mental note of their name and call to talk to the manager about their rude staff. If it continues then stop shopping there.

For coffee or bakery takeaway? Probably half tip nothing. But I suspect a zero tip on a credit card is probably more palatable to them than leaving physical coins.
